Start of Project Destiny Expedition
01 Jun 2018Slubman
My new trip outside of the Bubble has started.This is a trip to see some places that are part of the history of mankind, and also the maiden exploration trip for Heracles (my exploration Python).
For the historic side of things: Project Dynasty was a secret exploration initiative conceived by The Club in 3270. In response to the likelihood of a Thargoid civil war spilling into human space, The Club sought potential safe havens where humanity could flee in order to escape the conflict and survive. Project Dynasty was intended to identify Earth-like worlds beyond human space and mark them with beacons for later reference. The project focused on searching three galactic regions: the Scutum-Sagittarii Conflux, Hawking's Gap, and the Formidine Rift.

I convinced some fellow Black Ram commanders to join me and do a little bit of the trip together.
We started at Nakano Market in HR 1064 which is the Black Ram current HQ.
We started in a wing of 3 there. We were later joined by a friend of Black Ram to have a full wing.
The software installed in our ships by the Pilot's Federation is quite useless to do synchronized jumping in a wing, we had to sync our jumps by some other means, but the result was excellent.
We even managed to discover some bodies (but no systems?) as a wing
After around 5 hours and 4213.48 LY, we reached the first waypoint for the expedition: Thor's Eye.
There a fith member joined with us. the more the merrier
We did some photos there and then headed for a nearby system to play together with our SRVs.
Some stats for 3304-06-01 (some of this is before the start of the expedition):
